ChatSettingsFix (Patch 2.4)

Version: 2.4.1.3

by: Tekkub [More]

Patch 2.4 introduced a bug where ChatFrame1 does not apply channel filters on login. This addon forces them to be applied. It will check your game version and build and not run after patch 2.4.1 build 8125. If the bug is not fixed in the next patch, a new version will be released.

Support has been expanded to ChatFrame2 as well (the combat log). I don't use the combat log currently, so I'm not certain it doesn't mess with the filters... but I don't think it does. Settings are now saved in the addon's savedvars as well, because it seems some channels get reset, even though they are saved out to disk correctly.

Those settings are the reason I have to save them myself now, the game forces them back on, even if the settings it saved says they're off.

Ya know Tek .. I feel Blizz should hire you, I mean - seriously, they have devs dedicated to this stuff, yet can't fix it (even though the recent patch allegedly fixed it). But yet, you seem to fix all those little nuissances.

They couldn't get it in to this build. http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/th...geNo=1&sid=1#4

Tekkub thanks for fixing this annoying bug. I had my auto updater pointed to Google Code for all your mods, but I noticed you hadn't updated this mod on there since 2.4.0.1. Should I switch my updater to point at WoWInterface instead, or continue using Google Code?

Petrah A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 2988 File comments: 334 Uploads: 10	I'm trying to keep the combat log free of everything in the settings for "Other" (no boxes checked under that setting), and I'm also using the Color/non verbose settings (which at the moment is replacing the non-working SimpleCombatLog... omg I miss that addon /cry). It won't save my colors /scream Let me know if you need more details or screenshots. I'm wondering if Bliz is going to release a patch to fix the patch tomorrow lol. __________________ ♪～ (￣。￣ ) I ♥ My Sonos!

Petrah A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 2988 File comments: 334 Uploads: 10	Awe... it doesn't save the combat log settings The other settings appear to be saved somewhat... guild chat no longer goes into window 1. It goes into window 3 where I saved it. Although, the guild welcome message still goes into both windows whereas prepatch 2.4 it only went into window 3. I'll be checking back to see if you do more updates. You ROCK for making this addon!!! __________________ ♪～ (￣。￣ ) I ♥ My Sonos!

Anyway a big thanks! I hope on next Wednesday there will be a tiny little patch that will fix this issue. Again thanks for this addon!
